In the realm of classic car enthusiasts, few are as dedicated as Dr. Mark Davis, whose collection of three impeccably preserved Corvettes is set to go under the hammer at Mecum Auctions in Kissimmee, Florida. Known for his meticulous attention to detail and passion for original, unrestored Corvettes, Dr. Davis has ensured his cars are among the most thoroughly documented examples available, making them a dream for any Corvette aficionado.
Leading the collection is a stunning 1962 Corvette convertible, a vehicle that has claimed numerous prestigious awards, including the Zora Arkus-Duntov Mark of Excellence and the NCRS 5-Star Bowtie Award. With a mere 12,014 miles on the odometer, this Roman Red beauty, powered by a 327/340 HP engine, is a testament to automotive preservation.
The collection also includes a 1967 Corvette coupe, a definitive classic with its L36 390 HP big-block engine and mere 32,202 miles. Its impressive list of accolades includes the All-Time Preservation Award from the Historical Vehicle Association of America, alongside Bloomington Gold and NCRS Top Flight honors.
Rounding out the trio is a 1969 Corvette coupe, unique for being the only recipient of the Preservation Class Springhouse Award at the Greenbrier Concours d’Elegance. With only 11,050 miles, this Silver ’69 model is powered by a 350 CI, 350 HP L46 engine and is one of the rare examples equipped with factory air conditioning.
Each vehicle in Dr. Davis’ collection is a shining example of the Corvette’s legendary status in American automotive history. Their imminent sale presents a rare opportunity for collectors to own a piece of this legacy, complete with an extensive array of documentation and awards that affirm their unparalleled authenticity and originality.
